Juventus are reportedly willing to consider offers for Pierre Kalulu, although the French defender is not actively on the transfer market.

According to Tuttosport, the Bianconeri have set an asking price of €50 million, sending a clear message to interested clubs—particularly from the Premier League—that the 25-year-old could be available for the right offer.

Kalulu was one of Juventus’ standout performers last season after arriving from AC Milan, establishing himself as a key figure in the back line.

While the club considers him an important part of the squad, they are also prepared to capitalize on his growing market value if a significant bid arrives.

Juventus Need Sales to Fund New Signings

The recent surprise arrival of Zeki Çelik, who was reportedly close to extending his contract with Roma before Juventus stepped in, is not viewed as a direct replacement for Kalulu.

However, it reflects the club’s broader strategy as they look to strengthen Luciano Spalletti’s squad. According to Tuttosport, Juventus must generate funds through player sales before making further additions in the transfer market.

Several players are currently considered potential departures, but no major exits have been finalized.

Before seriously evaluating offers for Kalulu, the club would reportedly prefer to assess whether there is room to sell Bremer or Khephren Thuram, who is currently sidelined with a muscle injury.

If those transfers fail to materialize, Kalulu could emerge as one of the club’s most valuable assets to raise funds.

The former Milan defender has made 92 appearances for Juventus, contributing three goals and eight assists during his time in Turin.

A Major Capital Gain on the Cards

Juventus completed Kalulu’s permanent signing from AC Milan in June 2025 for €14.3 million, plus €300,000 in additional fees and performance-related bonuses worth up to €3 million.

He is under contract until 2029, earning approximately €2.4 million net per season, excluding bonuses.

With an annual cost of around €6.72 million, including salary and amortization, a sale worth €50 million would represent a substantial capital gain for Juventus, making the French international one of the club’s most profitable potential departures this summer.

As reported by Tuttosport, Juventus have not made Kalulu a priority sale—but if a club meets their valuation, the Bianconeri are unlikely to stand in the way of a transfer.
